I wish I’d done that. They look so much better in the arches than the low profile tyres. |

What size spare wheel do you have or do you just carry a can of the foam sealant? |

By the way, if anyone needs any of these wheels, please let me know because my source has pretty much an unlimited supply of them and can ship them via pallet or local pickup in Poole/Bournemouth area. Prices vary depending on condition and tread on tyres. Kev

Do you ever have issues with DSC applying itself on round-abouts? There seem to be many stories of this happening. |

Whilst I appreciate that these are genuine LR alloys and am sure there are no safety considerations, bearing in mind that they were never fitted as standard to the L320, what would your insurance company say? Do you think they would regard them as a modification? |

Indeed they do. Insurance company have been made aware and noted on policy. No premium increase. Kev

These are 255/55/20 which weren't fitted to the L320 from the factory. But yes, I 100% agree that it's best to tell them. As we know, they always try and wriggle out of a claim Kev

I'm interested that you said that there are many stories of this happening. I know that forum member MEC had an issue which he documented here but I am unaware of any other members having a problem. In addition, there are people who have fitted oversized wheels to the L320 which also increase the rolling circumference without DSC issues. I must admit, it isn't my cup of tea and there have been issues with un-damped steering racks causing vibrations on the early L320s, but not DSC issues as far as I'm aware.
